"Shall we go miss?..."
William asked as he entered the cabin.
Sarah was ready to go in the party, she was wearing beautiful red gown which was backless and had a
slit on it which was showing her sexy thick thigh. She had high heels on and was looking perfect with
smoky make up and curly hair.
"You are looking stunning..."
He complimented with smile.
Sarah smiled gratefully at him.
"Thanks to you... You are my life savior..."
She thanked him gratefully.
Sarah had no time to go home and get ready for the party after dealing with so much work so William
called the makeup artists in office and she got ready there.
"You are like my daughter... Please don't thank me..."
He said with small smile.
Sarah nodded, he was more of a father than her original one.
"Your daughter is lucky to have you Mr. William..."
She said.
"We should go now..."
William gave her his arm to hold and they head towards the party.
They reached the venue and he helped her to get out of the car. As soon as she stepped out reporters
bombarded with questions.
'miss Sarah is it true that you secretly got married?'
'who is your husband'
'is it true that marriage was just a business deal...'
'if you are married then why you are here with your P.A'
'is it true that you got married to your sisters fiancé...'
'can you give some clarification on this matter, are these rumors true?...'
Sarah ignored all of them, security was doing good job by keeping them away. She started walking in
with William.
"From where they get all these information?"
She said madly to William.
"They have so many ways and gossips like this spread like wildfire... Just ignore them, they are rumors
and let it be like that..."
He assured and she nodded.
She entered the beautiful big hall. It had a royal look and red theme. She could see the famous and
powerful business tycoon present there.
"Hello miss Rosewood... So glad you make it..."
The host reached to greet her.
"Of course Mr. Gomez... Congratulations, you got the project..."
Sarah greeted him.
"Please enjoy yourself..."
He said with professional smile and walked away.
William and Sarah went to grab some drinks and started taking to their business partners and friends.
Suddenly Sarah looked at the entrance and her smile fell when she saw Xavier with Amanda.
She had a designer gown on and was glowing with jewelry, he had black suit on and matching tie to her
golden gown. They were walking in like they are happy couple.
Xavier looked up and his eyes locked with Sarah. Smile fell from his lips when he saw the look on her
face. He didn't knew that she is invited in the party too.
'i am doing nothing wrong, she has no place in my life'
He completely ignored Sarah and started taking to people like he doesn't even know her.
"He should have come here with you?... Is he treating you like this?..."
William asked frowning.
Sarah chuckled bitterly.
"What do you expect, it's not this marriage has meaning."
"But he shouldn't disrespect the marriage like this..."
William said disappointingly.
"It's fine Mr. William... Trust me it's perfectly fine. It's better if he stays away from me..."
She sighed.
"This is not the first time where my life is disappointing me. I should have known that this will be the
reality of my marriage..."
William looked away in guilt.
'it's not your fault Sarah neither it's his fault. I can understand that why Xavier is so upset with you and
trust me if you learn about it then you will hate yourself. Xavier is a victim and so are you...'
"I hope you are okay?..."
He asked.
She chuckled bitterly.
"Of course I am okay... Why would I be upset. You know what Mr. William, I think I should start enjoying
my life. Why should men have all the fun..."
"What are you trying to do?..."
He asked confused.
"Whatever my heart desires!"
She smiled.
Amanda looked at Xavier who was totally ignoring her, she was feeling like a doll who is there to dance
on his fingers. He haven't even spoke a word to her. He wasn't even listening the man who was talking
to him, she followed the direction of his eyes and spotted Sarah.
Xavier was looking at Sarah like a lost man. She was looking stunning and that gown was enhancing
her beauty. She wasn't that teenager anymore, she is a stunning sexy woman now. He couldn't take
her eyes off her. Hundred of women were present in that hall and he was lost in her only.
Amanda looked at him confused thinking why would he look at her like this.
"I can't let you in any trouble miss..."
William said concerned.
"Is there anything else to happen Mr. William... I don't think I have something else to worry about."
She said with annoyed face. She have no idea why but seeing Xavier with someone else was upsetting
her.
'why I am feeling like this?...'
But she didn't wanted to accept it.
'if he doesn't care then I shouldn't either...'
"Hello miss Sahay..."
William said when he saw Anamika. She was wearing emerald green gown and was looking
breathtaking as usual.
"Hello Mr. William... Good evening Sarah..."
She greeted with smile.
"Good evening, didn't expected to see you here. You usually don't attend parties..."
Sarah asked.
"This was kind of important for me..."
Anamika answered.
Sarah frowned when he saw Xavier walking towards them.
'why is he coming here...'
She thought as her heart started racing.
"Good evening miss Sahay..."
Xavier ignored Sarah and held his hand in front of Anamika for a shake.
Anamika looked hesitant before shaking hands with Xavier. He looked at Sarah and she turned around
with scowl. Facing her back to him. She couldn't understand why would Xavier approach Anamika.
'Is he hitting on her now?... Pervert...'
she scowled.
She could hear them as she wasn't standing too far.
"My secretary tried to contact you, I heard you rejected our offers... May I know why?..."
He asked and Sarah frowned.
'is he talking about business or threatening her... Doesn't he know the way of talking to woman...'
She rolled her eyes. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Anamika took a deep breath trying to tame her rapid breathing.
"I will be honest here Mr. King... You are mafia boss and I am not getting to get involved with you in any
kind of business..."
She said honestly.
"It's not about Mafia... It's a different thing, not anything illegal..."
He said in soft voice as he noticed the change in her state. She was slightly shaking and couldn't
understand why. He haven't done anything wrong to her.
"It's not about illegal things Mr. King... It's jus___ I can't okay. Please try to understand..."
She said nervously.
"I mean no harm to you, your work is really good and I need your partnership in that resort. I don't think
anyone else has become so successful in this field like you..."
Xavier said genuinely.
"I would have done it either way but I don't really want to use my power against you. I know you are a
excellent business woman and the reputed one. You don't have to be scared of me..."
he assured.
Anamika released a big sigh. She was about to say no but her brother came from behind. He greeted
Xavier and Xavier looked at them confused. Anamika was Indian and her brother was Asian, how can
they be siblings.
"I'll talk to her regarding this Mr. King, leave it to me..."
Chang Said sincerely.
Xavier nodded in understanding.
"May I have a pleasure to dance with you..."
He asked like a gentleman. This deal was a very important for Xavier and he wanted it at any condition
and for that he would impress Anamika if he have to.
Anamika gulped in fear, her anxiety hit her like a tornado. Chang placed assuring hand on her shoulder
and told her to do it. She was about to deny but she heard a strong masculine voice from behind. She
tilted her head and spotted HIM standing behind her, talking with someone. Xavier noticed visible
change in her body as she froze in her place.
But she quickly gave him her hand and they walked towards the dance floor like she is trying to hide
from someone. Sarah's grip on her glass tightened as she saw Xavier treating Anamika like a
gentleman.
'is he only allergic to me?... Fuck you Xavier king...'
She closed her eyes frustratingly.
She opened her eyes and saw Xavier Smirking at her like he is trying to mock her.
'as if I care... Do whatever the fuck you want.'
She scoffed but from inside she was burning in jealousy. Not because he is dancing with some other
woman, it's because he is dancing with Anamika, her rival.
Sarah looked around and spotted a Man who was standing alone, drinking his wine. He have raven
black hair and a light stubble. he was tall, taller than Xavier and muscular. Sarah had no idea who is
this man but he was definitely someone important and it was obvious by his aura. Sarah thought for a
second and walked towards the handsome stranger.
"Would you like to dance with me Mr._?"
She asked confidently but all her confidence drained down when he looked at her with his Amber eyes,
which was screaming danger. he had that dark and dangerous look.
He looked so dominating and dangerous.
"Massimo Marino... And yes, I would love to___"
He said with the smirk, looking at her with amused and scrutinizing gaze. She noticed his thick Italian
accent.
Sarah wanted to run back and hide in a hole like a scared rabbit but she can't back out right now. This
man wasn't giving her good wibes.
"Mrs. King... You can call me Sarah..."
She said nervously not wanting to get in any kind of trouble. If something happens then he will be at
least aware that she is someone's wife.
"Very well Sarah... Come"
He took her hand and led her towards the dance floor.
William suddenly looked at her and closed his eyes in disbelief.
"Fuck Sarah... Did you find only that man in the whole fucking party..."
He cursed with tensed look.
Massimo rested his hand on her waist and she hesitated before holding on his shoulders.
"I won't eat you... Why did you asked me for a dance when you are so nervous..."
He chuckled and grabbed her hand placing it on his shoulder. She had to look up to meet his eyes.
"I am sorry, I don't know why I did this... This is my first time to dance with someone..."
she confessed with embarrassed smile.
"I see... just relax and copy me."
They started swaying on the music.
"Looks like you want to make your husband jealous..."
He looked at the Xavier with smirk who was glaring at him. Anamika had her back facing towards them
so Massimo couldn't see her. Massimo looked at Xavier with evil smirk.
"May be I can help..."
He looked at Sarah.
"I am sorry if I gave you wrong idea Mr. Marino... I don't mean anything else other than dance."
She said honestly.
Massimo looked down at her and Smirked.
"Don't worry, I am not into married woman... And you are way too soft for me Sarah, I like wild Tigress
not a innocent dove like you... But i must say Xavier is a fool to dance with someone else when he has
a stunning wife like you..."
Sarah looked at him with frown.
"How did you know that he is my husband... he is not the only king here..."
Massimo chuckled and swirled her around again grabbing her by the waist.
"I know everything sweetheart..."
"Why?..."
she asked confused.
He leaned down and whispered huskily in her ears.
"Because I am The Italian Mafia king, the king of underworld..."
Sarah went still in his hold with horrified expressions.
"I think I should leave now..."
She mumbled trying to get away and Massimo find it amusing. He is a devil who love to feed on others
fear.
"But I am not done with you yet..."
He said trying to scare her more, he had no intention to hurt her but it was fun to see her scared and
trembling in his hold.
"you have sexy curves Sarah..."
"please leave me..."
she panicked trying to get herself free but he was way too strong. Massimo had no bad intention for
her, he was just enjoying her fear and Xavier's anger who was throwing daggers at him by his angry
gaze.
"Excuse me"
Xavier said to Anamika and charged towards them. He grabbed Sarah by her arm and pulled her away
from Massimo.
